The FAOSTAT Temperature change dataset, produced in collaboration with NASA, covers the period 1961–2021 for 197 countries and 41 territories. It provides country-level information on observed warming trends on land, as a basis to help identify risk and design the responses necessary to safeguard the agriculture, forestry and fisheries sectors. The 2021 global mean annual temperature change over land was 1.4 °C, joining 2019 as the third warmest year on record since 1961.
